Delivery

So, my delivery story is one to share. I was on and off contracting for almost 2 weeks. Finally, the day came which I thought was "the day". I was timing my contractions, they were getting closer together but I was not going to be embarrassed by going to triage and getting sent home again, so I decided I would go when I was 2-4 minutes apart. Well, when I got to about 5 minutes, my sister came up to stay with the girls. Then I went to the bathroom after laboring all day. After I came out. I said to Ty, " we need to go right now!!!" Some friends came right as the words were coming out of my mouth. Ty was thinking we have a few more minutes. WRONG!! In my nicest most composed attitude, I gathered myself together. We finally got in the car and after a few minutes, my water broke in the Jetta. At this point, I was freaking out a little and suddenly, the urge to push was so strong. I knew if I didn't make it to the hospital right away, I would have the baby in the car. So, Ty is flying down the street, 911 on the phone and Im focusing on breathing steadily, and not crashing. We made it to the E.R. where (long story short) Kendall arrived after 3 pushes. From the time I left home to delivery (about 20 minutes). Yaaa! Kendall Sky is Here!!
